CAB COMMAND puts YOU in CONTROL

Cab Command puts you in complete control of your large scale locomotive empire. The intuitive hand held control manages up to 32 locomotives or multiple unit consists simultaneously and provides control over 100 track-side accessories.

| Locomotive receivers implement Back EMF motor control for realistic slow
speed operation and precise control. Radio control is through advanced
434 MHz digital packet radios. Drive your largest locomotives with up to 14 continuous amps of power, 30 amps peak or choose the smaller 3 amp (6 amp peak) version with the same amazing Back EMF slow speed performance. Protect your locomotive investment with short circuit, over temperature, and over voltage protection. Define and control six locomotive accessories. Set and display 8 character alphanumeric locomotive names and road numbers. Easily set up MU lashups and adjust speed curves between dissimilar locomotives. Set special lighting and accessory behavior for MU lead and helper locomotives. Unique control system provides reliable and gentle shutdown of locomotives in an emergency using the all-stop broadcast command. Additionally a user definable fail-safe timeout will safely shutdown all locomotives in the event the transmitter is powered off or the unlikely event receivers lose contact with the transmitter (~100 yard range). This feature is even better than track powered locomotives having their power abruptly shut off to stop a run-away locomotive. Ten digital channels are available. This allows up to ten transmitters to be used together. Each transmitter controls its own 32 locomotives while sharing the same track-side accessories with the other transmitters. |
